what is behind the rise in obama's numbers and conversely the drop in romney's? >> those are just the top line numbers. here is the story behind the story, the number behind the numbers. mitt romney's tough week last week with those controversial 47% comments from those hidden camera fund-raiser comments, that may be playing into it. i think more of this is about the economy. polls in these states and nationwide are indicating people are starting to get a little more optimistic about the economy, and look at this, who would do a better job of the economy, this is from the quinnipiac new york times cbs polls you showed. the president with a slight advantage in all three of their states. a different story, mitt romney used to have the advantage on the economy. >> back to the ohio/florida scenario. cnn sees obama likely to win, 237 electoral votes come election day. were he to also win ohio and florida, he would have the total 284. the magic number is 270. there is no guarantee he wins both of those states or either state for that matter you see where i'm going. >>

if you go to any poll, obama has huge advantages over romney among women and among hispanic voters. these are things that are keeping him afloat in the poll numbers because he's in trouble with independents, in trouble when people are asked is the country on the right track or the wrong track. romney's conservative positions on immigration and on things like abortion and contraception have really hurt him. our cnn poll that came out yesterday had obama beating romney by a wide, wide margin. romney only hitting 26% among hispanic voters in that poll which is devastating for his campaign and among women, just look at a poll out today from nbc and the wall street journal in ohio where obama is cruising. one reason is because obama has a 17-point advantage among women. look at polls in virginia and florida. it is much tighter because the margin is tighter among women. so romney has to come in tonight and answer questions about immigration and women's issues in a way that doesn't turn off voters. mccain during a discussion about abortion made an angry reference to the health of the mothe
